I think the lead is misleading. It sounds as though the city is losing a promising candidate for mayor but then describes Mfume's flaws and failures. The piece is poorly sourced and it appears the author didn't do any real investigating.

It would be better if there were sources in the story.

I think this story is a good example of watch dog journalism. The city lost a grant because of wasteful spending and the city and its residents are going to suffer from it. It is good to know for those affected to know why the city lost its grant.

I think this is good journalism. It is a topic that has received a lot of attention over the past couple of years but focused in a different angle, students. Plenty of experts were sourced and could potentially help homeless students in the area.

This story needs more facts and numbers to support those facts. Obesity is a problem with youths but this article gives nothing new about how to eat healthier or about exercising.

I think this is certainly good journalism. It is well researched, informative and well sourced.

I think this article is well written and reflects both sides of the casino argument that still seems to linger.

I think this story was kind of lazily written. It would have been stronger if there were better sources.

It is good journalism in the sense that it is helping to keep the public aware about where government dollars are going. Although I would have liked to hear from someone who would be affected by the new plan.

It would have been better if the story went into more detail about how the money was being spent.

It would have been nice if the writer talked to more experts in the area. Also I the he said, she said, made the quotes difficult to follow.

I think this is poor journalism. The lead is full of opinion and I don't see why President Obama should be mentioned in the story.
